Godot Mobile virtual keyboard covers input (sh.itjust.works)

submitted 1 month ago by dontbelievethis@sh.itjust.works to c/godot@programming.dev

So I am trying to build a simple todo APP for mobile as a learning experience.

I have a lineEdit which activates the virtual keyboard. This goes over the lineEdit.

I read that I should get the keyboard height with displayserver.virtual_keyboard_height() on an focus_entered() signal which is emitted from lineEdit.

When I try to do that, the value is 0. This is because the keyboard appears to slow. I put in a:

await get_tree().create_timer(1).timeout

Which gets the height of the keyboard but building in a 1 second delay can't possibly be the right solution here.

My question is: how did you solve this problem? And is it possible to not bother wit that at all? Is there a option in the project settings that makes it that, when the keyboard appears the whole app gets pushed up?

I don't really grasp how the keyboard interacts with the app. Is it considered an overlay or part of the app?

Thanks for the answer!

I will implement your solution as I don't see a way to get the virtual keyboard to emit a signal when reaching full height.
